Winemaker's Notes:

A dense blood red, shimmering colour. Enticing, feminine perfume, Burgundian with savoury mushroom notes. The more you nose, the more comes to the fore. Silk smooth entry, but solid tannins, rounded, polished. Perfectly balanced and great depth. Spice, but also berries, violet and other florals. Great future of Burgundian complexity after maturation. Great wine. Pinotage at its peak, showing a remarkable elegance. www.beyerskloof.co.zaOne of the most famous Pinotages in South Africa--and easily the standout wine of the tasting. A big, rich and concentrated red with aromas of smoke, dark fruit and spice, it's as much Rhone as it is Stellenbosch. WSJ, 1/11/13

In 1988 one of the Cape's most foremost wine makers, Beyers Truter of Kanonkop Estate formed a partnership with four ardent wine lovers in Johannesburg with one ideal in mind : To produce a wine of exceptional character.
After exploring the Cape Winelands for a suitable location they found a perfectly situated farm in the Koelenhof area within the Stellenbosch Wine of Origin region. Coincidence provided an appropriate name. The farm's original name was Nooitgedacht, which for five generations belonged to the Beyers family before Jan Andries Beyers sold it in 1895. Beyers Truter is a direct descendent of Jan Beyers, thus making him the sixth generation to farm this land.
This piece of land could only have one name - BEYERSKLOOF
Today the business is in capable hands of Beyers Tuter and Simon Halliday from Raisin Social, UK Read less
